Route Details: The Navigation Log

The SimRoutes Navigation Log is dynamically generated in real time by the SimRoutes Dynamic Route Parser. This engine can take a simple text based Route and transform it into a rich, powerful, and highly detailed Route - with the ability to display itself in a variety of formats. One of the most useful of these formats (for sim pilots anyhow) is the Navigation Log.

The Navigation Log lists details about each waypoint in your route such as:

• The Waypoints ICAO code
• The Name of the Waypoint
• The Frequency of the Waypoint, if applicable
• The Airway or Procedure (SID/STAR) that the Waypoint is a part of
• The True Heading required to reach this Waypoint from the previous Waypoint. (This does not take Magnetic Variation into account)
• The Distance between this Waypoint and the Previous Waypoint in Nautical Miles
• The Total Distance travelled along this Route, from Waypoint to Waypoint
• The Current AIRAC Navigation Cycle that the Navigation Log is based on
